Avatar m tn t hurt the dog. Oxybutynin is an anticholinergic drug that is actually used in dogs to treat urinary incontinence. It doesn't work on the actual bladder sphinter, it works by relaxing the bladder muscle so that it is able to store more urine without feeling full. If the dog were to ingest one, there should be no ill effects.
Avatar n tn Hi to everyone! I started having the problem with urinary incontinence about 4 years ago when I was 30. At first it was not that bad and I did not really worry or think about it. The last 2 years it got worse. It is not that much the frequency as the urgency that is my problem. The urge comes suddenly and is very strong. I have few minutes to find a toilet or otherwise I just can not hold it.
359574 tn?1328360424 She convinced me I should try one of the medications for overactive bladder, and spent a bunch of time addressing the bowel issues, too, which are making the urinary incontinence problems worse. She did say that I have taught my bladder to get rid of urine by pushing it out instead of just letting it contract by itself. And all the straining with the bowel has contributed. Going to try starting over with fiber and no laxatives and see if I can do that better.
Avatar f tn However, about a month and a half ago, I started having very severe urinary frequency and urgency. I had no pain or burning during urination. However, I tested positive for a urinary tract infection and began on pyridium and bactrim. My symptoms did not improve so I began on Levaquin for 10 days. Since then I have had an ultrasound of my kidneys, ovaries, and bladder, and everything was normal. My labwork was also normal.

664777 tn?1231981676 Chiari in a mild form can also produce symptoms that a larger herniation creates....sometimes the larger herniations do not produce symptoms for years! Chiari 0 is a relativly a newer term...there is no herniation...but if u have copies of ur MRI u can see the crowding....there r areas inside that should have spaces btwn...the crowding causes the CF not to flow as it should and causes headaches and other chiari symptoms.....

Avatar n tn She is suffering from severe leg pain and also has a stress urinary incontinence. It is very hard to manage her. We had tried some medications, but nothing worked for her. One of our family friends had told us that physiotherapy. Is a good treatment method of a woman with stress urinary incontinence. Is it applicable for an aged woman? What is this treatment all about? Do I need to assist her during the treatment? How much will be the treatment duration? Any thoughts?
Avatar m tn dicyclomine is a normal thing to prescribe for the treatment of IBS (Irritable Bowel Syndrome) and urinary incontinence, but one of the side effects is it gives dogs a very dry mouth - which in turn leads them to drink more than they normally might, which in turn can lead to more incontinence ... and the poor dog ends up in a bit of a viscous cycle. The other problem, with dogs that do not drink enough water while taking this medication, is they become constipated and dehydrated.

Avatar f tn Ever since the Ureteroscopy I have had pretty bad stress urinary incontinence. Is this a normal side effect of either procedure?? Is this a permanent side effect?? Is there anything non surgical I can do to help the incontinence? I've been doing Kegel exercises religiously since October with no results. It's been 6 months of urinary incontinence.
Avatar f tn Anyone, at any age, who suffers urinary incontinence or leaks urine. While the exercise mainly helps those with stress urinary incontinence, it can also help those with another common type, urge incontinence from overactive bladder. With urge incontinence, you have a sudden urge to urinate and don't always make it to the bathroom. Men with urinary incontinence problems can do Kegel exercises, too.

Avatar n tn There is no way to implant a nerve into the spinal cord. If the son is experiencing something like urinary incontinence there is a device that some people have found useful that runs wires from the root(s) of the spinal nerves into areas that help control the sphincter muscles to try to control urinary output - so people don't leak. Is that what you're speaking of?
Avatar n tn Night time bed wetting or incontinence could be due to stress, functionally small bladder, diabetes mellitus, diabetes insipidus, urinary bladder wall instability, UTI, stones and neurological problems. Urinary bladder wall problem has been deducted in your case. However you can discuss your case with your urologist. The enumerated the possibilities can be investigated or ruled out one by one by your physician. A psychological assessment of the situation may also help. Hope this helps.
378497 tn?1232143585 40, lol) who has had kids) A high spinal cord lesion (above T6) can cause a person to demonstrate symptoms of urinary frequency, urgency, and urge incontinence but will be unable to empty his or her bladder completely. This occurs because the urinary bladder and the sphincter are both overactive, a condition termed detrusor sphincter dyssynergia with detrusor hyperreflexia (DSD-DH).

Avatar n tn I am hoping to find a reason for my daughter's fecal/urinary incontinence. She wets/soils herself several times in a day, and through the night. She has had several medical tests to rule out a physical cause, including a spinal MRI. I know mentally she is capable of using the toilet, and as her mom, I feel there is cause, possibly dietary, that we can manage if only we could find it.
